A quick guide on how to set up the Adobe Flash media encoder to stream to batc.tv is available here: [1]

URL, stream id and stream name

These can all be found in your BATC Stream Management page.

This can be accessed by logging-in to the BATC Secure Portal, then selecting "Manage Streams" from the menu on the left.

Your short URL can be used to go directly to your stream.

For example type http://www.batc.tv/streams/g8gtz into your web browser, where "g8gtz" is the text entered in the "Short URL" field.

Stream: <stream-id> Codec Choice

H.264 is the superior codec for streaming typical video over a constrained bitrate, however the denoising filters in VP6 can produce a better effective quality when streaming noisy analogue video.

AAC is the superior audio codec, however FMLE doesn't offer it as an option in all configurations.
